Countryside Partnerships will take on the main construction project once full planning approval is granted.
This collaboration will result in the delivery of 137 homes and 137 apartments, with 40% designated as affordable housing to be managed by the council’s local housing company, Derive.
All of these homes will be built to the “Salford Standard,” which goes beyond the requirements of the Future Homes Standard.Additionally, the project will include improvements to existing public open spaces and the creation of new public parks.
Joe Turner, managing director, Vistry Manchester and Cheshire East, said: “We are delighted to deliver this new development for Salford Council.
“It will provide a significant number of affordable homes, whilst bringing a previously redundant brownfield site back into beneficial use, which is exactly what we seek to achieve as an organisation.”
